<p class="procedureheading">To change the interface language and skin for your control panel and for your customers, follow these steps:</p>
<ol class="procedurelistnumber"><li class="procedurelistnumber">Go to <strong class="specialbold">Server &gt;</strong> <strong class="specialbold">Control Panel &gt; Server Preferences</strong>.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Specify the following:<ol class="listalpha2"><li class="listalpha2"><strong class="specialbold">Default locale.</strong> Select the interface language that will be set as default for new control panel users.</li><li class="listalpha2"><strong class="specialbold">Default skin.</strong> Select the interface skin (theme) that will  be set as default for new control panel users.</li><li class="listalpha2"><strong class="specialbold">Administrator's interface language.</strong> Select the language for your control panel.</li><li class="listalpha2"><strong class="specialbold">Administrator's interface skin.</strong> Select the skin (theme) for your control panel.</li></ol></li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click <strong class="specialbold">OK</strong>.</li></ol><p class="bodytext">Note that on that control panel screen, there are also the following settings, which you might want to review (we recommend leaving their default values for most users):  </p>
<ol class="listalpha"><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Button label length.</strong> To prevent lengthy button captions in languages other than English from overlapping in the control panel, you may want to specify a limit here. Any  button caption longer than the defined limit will be shortened and ended with ellipsis (...).  </li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Prevent users from working with the control panel until interface screens are completely loaded.</strong> Leave this selected to avoid errors that might occur when users try to interact with control panel before is it ready.  </li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Default interface customization template.</strong> Once you customize the control panel and save the settings in a template as described in <a id="h44407" class="jumptemplate" title="Using Interface Customization Templates" href="28734.htm" target="_self">Using Interface Customization Templates</a>, you will be able to select your template here.</li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Desktop preset.</strong> Once you customize the desktop and save the settings in a template as described in <a id="h44410" class="jumptemplate" title="Using Desktop Presets" href="28742.htm" target="_self">Using Desktop Presets</a>, you will be able to select your template here. </li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Administrator's interface customization template.</strong> Once you customize the control panel and save the settings in a template as described in <a id="h44407_2" class="jumptemplate" title="Using Interface Customization Templates" href="28734.htm" target="_self">Using Interface Customization Templates</a>, you will be able to select your template here. </li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Allow multiple sessions under administrator's login.</strong> By default Plesk allows multiple simultaneous sessions for several users logged into the control panel using the same login and password combination. This can be useful when delegating management functions to other users or in case if you accidentally close your browser without logging out, thus becoming unable to log in again until your session expires. You may want to switch off this capability, if you do not need it.</li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Full host name.</strong></li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Apache restart interval.</strong> Any changes to hosting account settings made through control panel take effect only when Web server is restarted. By default, Web server is set to restart not more than once in every 15 minutes. This value is optimal for most cases, and we recommend leaving this default setting. Note that when there are no changes in hosting account settings, the Web server is not forced to restart.</li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Web and traffic statistics retention period.</strong> By default, statistics are kept for three months. You may want to specify another period here.</li><li class="listalpha"><strong class="specialbold">Items that statistical utilities should count when calculating disk space and bandwidth usage.</strong></li></ol><p class="bodytext"></p>
